As noted in section I, The battery may be stored up to 5 years at or below 25°C
without degradation of performance provided that an inspection and open circuit
voltage check is conducted every 12 months following the initial 2-year storage
period. When stored at temperatures above 25°C and below 35°C the battery
should be inspected every 12 months following the initial 12 months storage
period. When stored at temperatures at or above 35°C the battery should be
inspected every 6 months.
UNOTEU: If the storage voltage is lower than 25.3 volts, perform a boost charge
in accordance with paragraph H.
UNOTE:U Service life begins with the date of first installation on the aircraft.
The graph in Figure 6 demonstrates typical capacity retention of the battery
during storage without regular boost charges.
